When Should You Buy CLASSYS Inc. (KOSDAQ:214150)?

(KOSDAQ:214150), is not the largest company out there, but it saw significant share price movement during recent months on the KOSDAQ, rising to highs of ₩17,500 and falling to the lows of ₩12,750.

What is CLASSYS worth?

According to my price multiple model, which makes a comparison between the company's price-to-earnings ratio and the industry average, the stock price seems to be justfied. I’ve used the price-to-earnings ratio in this instance because there’s not enough visibility to forecast its cash flows. The stock’s ratio of 23.3x is currently trading slightly above its industry peers’ ratio of 18.52x, which means if you buy CLASSYS today, you’d be paying a relatively reasonable price for it. And if you believe that CLASSYS should be trading at this level in the long run, then there should only be a fairly immaterial downside vs other industry peers. Is there another opportunity to buy low in the future? Since CLASSYS’s share price is quite volatile, we could potentially see it sink lower (or rise higher) in the future, giving us another chance to buy. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for how much the stock moves relative to the rest of the market.

What kind of growth will CLASSYS generate?

Buying a great company with a robust outlook at a cheap price is always a good investment, so let’s also take a look at the company's future expectations. CLASSYS' earnings over the next few years are expected to increase by 53%, indicating a highly optimistic future ahead. This should lead to more robust cash flows, feeding into a higher share value.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? A214150’s optimistic future growth appears to have been factored into the current share price, with shares trading around industry price multiples.
